Ron Paul is the candidate I have hoped we would see for a long long time. I always have a vaguely sick feeling when I vote that I am choosing the lesser of evils. I despise or at least mistrust most government organizations and I have always been in favor of less government and less spending.
My only concern about Paul is whether he is too much of an isolationist; I think you can go too far in the other direction.
I also don't understand why he says he will not run as an independent; He is running in a party that looks at him as an outcast. Why refuse to continue the challenge if he does not get the nomination?
Is there any evidence that he will have any success in the primary? Seems to me that there would be very little correlation between general popularity of this type of dark horse candidate and whether he stands a chance with party voters. |
